You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.
Why is there picture rotation when importing files into Microsoft Photo Editor from Dropbox?
I shared a link to my dropbox for a file with photos. The person I shared it to opened the file in Microsoft Photo Editor, All the pictures were rotated 90 degrees from their orientation in dropbox. Is there something I can do to make sure this does not happen?
Windows 11 won't let me open Dropbox documents that are on my hard drive (0x80070780 error)
Recently bought a new Dell xps with Windows 11. I can open all Dropbox documents when going through the website but get and error message 0x80070780 when I try to open Dropbox documents that are on my hard drive. That error message is "the file cannot be accessed by the system". The Windows community says that it could be due to corrupted windows files but I ran all of the DISM diagnostics and found no corruption. It said that it could also be due to not having administrator powers but I confirmed that I am the administrator and logged into that function. I can access the files through the Dropbox app on my phone and tablet. What can I do to be able to access the Dropbox files located on my hard drive?Opening a folder takes too long on Windows 11 when Dropbox is running
Suddenly, opening a Dropbox folder takes too long time when the dropbox app is running. when I close the Dropbox app I can browse the folders normally and smoothly without any problem. noting that all the files are available offline.
"We couldn't open (insert file name here). Wait a bit, then try again"
The subject line captures the error that I am receiving anytime I attempt to open a file stored by DropBox on my PC through the File Explorer. I have tried various media players, VLC, Windows Media Player Legacy, Windows 11 Media Player, 5k Video Player (which plays virtually any extension) - And these are all Mp4 videos, which are compatible with any and every of those players listed. The strange thing is that this error is intermittent, sometimes the videos load great, other times they provide this error. I have tried it with/without my VPN turned on thinking that perhaps it was an access issue with the VPN IP being active, I use a static IP address so it couldn't be from dynamic IP changing - I'm at a loss.
Extra large icons appear small on the Dropbox app of my Windows 11 computer.
Hello, I can't find any recent post about this so maybe there is a solution. When i use the dropbox app for windows 11 my thumbnail view is too small. I set the view on extra large icons, but the icons are not showing the full icon size. Is there something i can do to fix this? kind regards, Marco
Vault will not re-open after timeout
When i open the vault, contents show just fine. After 10 minutes, Dropbix prompts a message that the vault needs the PIN re-entered to keep syncing. But when the PIN is entered, DROPBOX will never reconnect the vault. We get a message 'Something went wrong, please try again later'. (Lame useless messsage - how about an error code?) Then if we keep workiing with the files, we get 'Corrupted' copies because it couldnt save. Really a pain! After this failure, if I click something in the vault folder, it simply disappears. I can't be the only one experiencing this! Windows 10/Pro This has been happening for well over a year. Why don't you guys fix it? Actually, i would prefer the dialog ASK me how long i would like the vault to stay open for...
